Comment:
I am a chronic pain patient. I wanted to be less dependent on RX pain medicines. My nurse recommended these. I LOVE them!! I went from 5-6 daily doses of opioids to 3-4 doses of this daily if not less. Now I'm down to 1-2 doses at most daily of the other, and many days none at all. This is more expensive but definitely worth it. I'll never use anything else again!!

Comment:
I know the FCC doesn't agree that this drug is superior for back pain, but they're wrong. When I over stress my back, the nerves in my back tingle and I can't sleep. Nothing the doctors tried helped at all. Doan's has been a miracle to me.
